Paper Title: 
3157. IMPACT - Innovative Mass Properties Analysis CATIA Tool or Weight and Balance 2.2 Customized Solution
Year: 
2001
Paper Number: 
3157
Abstract: 

Impact is a mass property distribution tool developed by Bombardier Aerospace and ACT (Alliance Commercial and Technology). This new tool is a customized solution of the ACT Weight and Balance V3.2 application for CATIA. The new application includes the basic functionality of the W&B ACT application plus the following:• Ability analyze all CATIA models loaded in the user work session. • Cut most of the CATIA elements in a model(s) to extract, center of gravity, and inertia distribution data. The data is then use in the weight data for stress and dynamic analysis report. • Code each CATIA element to produce a detail weight statement (ref: SAWE recommended practice #8A) with an integrated code table. • Automatic code attribution for each CATIA element to produce a geographical weight statement. • User interface to validate data prior to the initiation of the compute process. • Result of analysis may be appended to an existing file or saved under a new file. • Output analysis data can be organized in an assembly drawing structure via the validation panel. • Analysis can be performed through an overnight batch process. Results and error log files are sent by e-mail to the user account.
